We've just come back from a week in Belgium with a short hop over to Luxembourg, just thought I'd share the sites that we stayed at we thought they were all very good.
Location: Wervik
Site: https://www.wervik.be/toerisme/overnachten/kampeerautoterreindebalokken/en
Lovely little Aire along the river Leie right on the French/Belgium border, only 8 spaces but it is bookable in advance for only 10euros. The price includes electricity, chemical waste and greywater disposal, fresh water is available for 1euro for 100Ltrs.
Very convenient if you are coming from Dunkirk as it is only 40 miles away with a Lidl nearby to stock up on supplies.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Location: Han-Sur-Lesse
Site: Le Pirot
A charming little site on the bank of the River Lesse, we paid 27euros per night (2 Adults & 2 Children). This included electricity, fresh water & chemical waste & greywater disposal. You have to book via email or phone as they don't have any online booking facilities, and we paid upon arrival, the site had a nice clean toilet block with showers. Perfect location for visiting the Caves of Han, also highly recommended.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Location: Dinant
Site: https://park4night.com/en/place/298190
At only 10euros this place is an absolute steal, you get no fresh water, no electricity, no chemical & grey water disposal but with quite simply the best view over Dinant who cares! What is provided though is plenty of firewood for keeping warm whilst you admire the view over a glass of wine in the evening.
A little tricky to organize as the owner only speaks French, you have to book over email and he will let you know what times he is available to meet you at the location which is around 1/2 mile down a farm lane, even though we speak very little French he made us feel very welcome and is quite a funny chap.
From what we could see there were 4 spaces split on to 2 tiers, on our tier another van turned up later in the day but the owner arranges you so that you all have a view.

Location: Esch-sur-Sûre, Luxembourg
Site: https://camping-bissen.lu/en/
Another riverside site running alongside the river Sûre, this one was the most expensive at 29euros, and included electric, water, and chemical & greywater disposal.
There is a restaurant onsite, it looked very nice but we did not go in so I cannot comment.
There is a lovely walk along the river on a well-paved foot/cycle path to the Village of Esch-sur-Sûre, a very quaint place with ruins of the oldest castle in Luxembourg to explore and a few restaurants to refresh yourselves in before the walk back.
Also right outside the site is a bus stop that takes you to Ettelbruck and from there you can catch the train right into Luxembourg City, all very easy and best of all Free as there is no charge for public transport in Luxembourg!
We did stay at another site and although it was nice it was nothing to write home about, only went there for the swimming pool for the kids.
Overall Belgium & Luxemburg surprised us with how beautiful the countryside was and how relaxed it felt driving through it.
